Re: [HumJanenge] Fwd: [RTI INDIA] Very Important RTI Order

Mr Sarbajit,

Just commenting on a small part of your post reproduced below.
(Have deleted the rest of your post and the long tail)

As you mentioned, the SC has not notified any rules in the Official Gazette, as required under Sec 28.
They cannot "choose" to follow or not follow anything.
Even if they chose to follow Central RTI Rules, they need to notify them.
Hope they know how to copy/paste.
Surely, the legal luminaries in the SC must be aware of this.

I have a clear written reply from the CPIO of the SC, confirming that the SC has no RTI Rules.

Therefore, since nothing is notified, there are no RTI Rules that the SC has.
That simply means that getting information from the SC, under RTI, is free.

The SC has not yet notified (in gazette) any Fee/Cost Rules to supply information under RTI. They are choosing to :"follow" the DoPT's fees. It is undeniable that the CJI/SC has the power (u/s 28 RTIA) as competent authority to prescribe any damn "reasonable" fee/cost and Mr Gandhi can do bugger all about it.
